Sarah

by AndrewA

Taken this afternoon at Mablethorpe. A trip to the seaside, coats and all.
This was one of those moments where I had a split second to capture the shot before I get told to "Stop pointing the camera at me!".

Lovely shot, but, for me, the hand is to prominent.
Best Regards, Larry.

I think the eye, the hand, and the hood make a great composition. trixie says black and white but on my monitor I can see colour. Have you desaturated it to a point? Or do I need a new monitor.

I like this very much - makes me wonder about her mood and what she's thinking.

I think we need to see more portraits of Sarah

Hi Barrie, no your monitor is fine, I have left a little colour in the shot
